Providing you dont get burnt out by rioters, looters, disease, etc and you want to stay in the city these rooftops may inspire you.

NR, have you not heard about the Green Roof movement yet?

I have a flat roofed brick built (concrete roofed) old style "wash-house on the side of my house that would make an ideal veggie growing area. Have been thinking about it for a while and this has inspired me to investigate a little further. Thanks for the heads-up, NR.
Joe.

NR, you should check out window farms. You could set up a small solar panel to power the pump, then you're on to a winner.

Check that website out. It's such a great idea for people living in cities.
